Ariana Grande critic Piers Morgan apologizes to singer

Grande announced her plans to hold the benefit last Monday on Twitter telling here fans that "proceeds will benefit the victims and the families affected by the Manchester attack on May 22, 2017".

"Manchester, I love you with all of my heart", Grande said before the performance, and just after singing "One Last Time" with Miley Cyrus, Pharrell and more of the show's performers standing behind her in solidarity.

Addressing the wrong city is awkward for any artist performing to a crowd, which is why when the Black Eyed Peas rapper shouted out to London from the One Love concert in Manchester, it left everyone a bit confused.

Fellow singer Miley Cyrus joined the rendition and said: "I'd like to wrap my arms around each and every one of you and thank you ..." Ariana's boyfriend, Mac Miller, even joined her on stage at one point to duet with her on the song, The Way. "I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter/Dancing through the fire/'Cause I am the champion, and you're gonna hear me roar" she sang - an apt description of Grande and the thousands who survived the Manchester attacks to come back for more. In the end, as the concert's theme enforced, love always wins.

And Grande earlier sang My Everything with students from Parr's Wood High school in Manchester, comforting 12-year-old soloist Natasha Seth, who was overcome with emotion.

The benefit concert was deemed a success after more than $9 million was raised. "She was brilliant, I thought it may be a bit nearly rehearsed, or a bit false...but she was just wonderful, there was no time limit, there was no 'Don't touch her, don't take pictures.' She was just there for anything, everything".
